First 3/8, second 2/3, and third 19/24
You have 2 apples, get 3 more, and then lose 2 of them.
So, you HAVE 2 apples, and if you get 3 more, you can add it to the 2.
![2 + 3 = 5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%20%2B%203%20%3D%205)
In total at the moment, you have 5 apples. Now, you lose 2 more. We can subtract that from our total number of apples.
![5 - 2 = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5%20-%202%20%3D%203)
We now know that you are left with
3 apples.
Answer:
(#14 - supplementary) x = 10.5
(#15 - supplementary) x = 10
Explanation:
For these problems, we must know that a supplementary angle can be viewed as a sum of angles that add to 180 degrees. With this known, we can write our equations to find x.
(#14)
15x - 12 + 5x - 18 = 180
20x - 30 = 180
20x = 210
x = 10.5
(#15)
6x + 13 + 14x - 33 = 180
20x - 20 = 180
20x = 200
x = 10
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
